Hey Y’all I’ve Been Looking Through The Goncharov (1973) Posts, And It Seems Like Most People Aren’t

Fooduary Day 12: Candy Apples

This one was particularly hard! I am not the best at super bright/saturated colors so I second guess myself too much while drawing with them. Candy Apples were invented in 1908. I wanted to incorporate the iconic color, the stick, and hide little apples where I could. What do you think?

Female inmates of San Quentin State Prison and their very fine hats. 6/?.

Arthur Holmwood: oh, so dracula controls rats? i'll handle it

Van Helsing: may I ask how?

Arthur Holmwood, pulling rat terriers out of his pockets and chucking them into Carfax like live grenades: i said i'll handle it

“Appeal to a wider audience” is corporate lingo for “strip more themes from a piece of media so it’s safer and more sanitized for investors”

Apparently people have messaged me and I never noticed. Real people. Not bots. I feel so bad the messages are like a year old. So I can't reply now

Parts of it are very cringe but parts of it - well, still cringe, but worth sharing I think

show, don't tell:

anticipation - bouncing legs - darting eyes - breathing deeply - useless / mindless tasks - eyes on the clock - checking and re-checking

frustration - grumbling - heavy footsteps - hot flush - narrowed eyes - pointing fingers - pacing / stomping

sadness - eyes filling up with tears - blinking quickly - hiccuped breaths - face turned away - red / burning cheeks - short sentences with gulps

happiness - smiling / cheeks hurting - animated - chest hurts from laughing - rapid movements - eye contact - quick speaking

boredom - complaining - sighing - grumbling - pacing - leg bouncing - picking at nails

fear - quick heartbeat - shaking / clammy hands - pinching self - tuck away - closing eyes - clenched hands

disappointment - no eye contact - hard swallow - clenched hands - tears, occasionally - mhm-hmm

tiredness - spacing out - eyes closing - nodding head absently - long sighs - no eye contact - grim smile

confidence - prolonged eye contact - appreciates instead of apologizing - active listening - shoulders back - micro reactions

The Kansas Newspaper Union, Topeka, November 26, 1887

I want everyone to know that there are queers in the hollers of Appalachia, in the bayous and marshland of the Deep South, in Southwestern deserts, through the Ozark mountains and up to the Rockies. There are queers in the Great Plains, there are queers in rural America, in trailer parks of the Osage foothills. In the places you least expect us to live, we are here, carving out community and fighting for liberation with pride despite it all. Stop forgetting about us. Stop overlooking our experiences and our impact just because we don’t live in a Big Gay City. And for the love of God, stop looking at us with pity.
